What I Learned From 2008

image I have to hand it to blogging friend and fellow SOBCon 2008 alumni Robert Hruzek of Middle Zone Musings.  His monthly What I Learned From… series morphed into a fantastic display of blogging talent from around the web in January of this year.

Robert opened his blog to anyone interested in sharing a list of their posts from their blogs.  Calling it BLOGAPALOOZA! – What I Learned From 2008, this blogging extravaganza has featured some of the best writing talent you can find on the ‘net.

You can find my post here – just posted today actually.  So I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Robert for the chance to share some posts of mine from 2008, and be part of a great group blogging project that has accumulated well over 100 entries so far.

So Robert, here’s a “tip o’ the hat” to you for organizing BLOGAPALOOZA 2008.

Social Media Breakfast – Twin Cites #11

Social Media Breakfast - Twin Cities Hi there, it’s time again for the next SMBMSP event here in the Twin Cities – our 11th event if you can believe it!

We’ll be talking about social media and how it can be used in job search. This is a hot topic during our current economic situation, and I’m sure there are a number of people who will benefit from the discussion.

Where: The “Doty” conference room at the Minneapolis Central Library (300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis , 55401)
When: January 30th, 8am to 10am
RSVP: Sign up on our Ning site (http://smbmsp.ning.com/events/smbmsp-11-social-media-job)

We’ll have Paul DeBettignies (@MNHeadhunter) to talk about these things from a recruiter’s point of view.  Other folks with great ideas for using social media for job search are welcome to stand up and share them with the group.

We’ll also look at brainstorming ideas for our fellow SMBers and invite you to share job leads on our Forum here on our Ning site.

We’re working on sponsors, but currently this event may be BYOB.  We’ll keep you posted on that from the smbmsp.ning.com site, so you may want to check in there once or twice.  Or follow us on Twitter (@smbmsp) for updates.

So join us in taking our understanding of social media and applying it back to our own community for job search.
